When we go from house to house during Halloween, and find there beautiful drawings on the windows of the houses, we are looking at Window Color. Painting with transparent paint is called Window Color. With this "technology", you have the possibility to turn your boring, not so pretty window into an EyeCatcher! Using Window Color paint, you can transform flat surfaces into works of art! First, an image is drawn (usually on a template), and later, they dry in a safe place so that your brothers or your pet don't destroy them. The wet paint can adhere quite strongly, so be warned. Then, the painted motifs (Halloween motifs) are pulled off the foil and glued to a smooth surface, preferably a window. Depending on the light, your motives sometimes shine more, sometimes less! Many also glow in the dark.

Where can I get Window Color, and how do I transform my window into a work of art?

Window Color, also known as WiCo, can be obtained in the well stocked, paper stores, large supermarkets, and some discount stores.

WiCo is not expensive. For a few Euros, you are in fun for all ages.
